Coronary atherosclerosis developed in normolipemic swine fed a basal ration supplemented with 125,000 IU, 62,500 IU and 31,250 IU of vitamin D3/kg of diet for 3 months and subsequently only the basal ration for the following 3 months. Lesions consisted of intimal atheromata and calcified internal elastica and caused luminal narrowing. The incidence of atherosclerotic lesions was proportional to...

any suboptimum treatment in the management of patients can lead to medication errors (mes) that may increase morbidity and mortality in hospitalized individuals. by establishing well-designed patient care activities within the managed care setting, clinical pharmacists can cooperate with other health care professionals to provide quality care and maximize safety. the aim of this study was to ev...

introduction: medication errors are among the most serious health errors threatening patient safety in all countries, with major impacts on public health. midwives as members of healthcare systems are prone to such errors. therefore, in this study, we aimed to determine medication errors and the contributing factors among midwives working in maternity units of mashhad university of medical scie...

In a brief preliminary report’ we described a faulty ration and its effects on t,he skeleton of the growing rat, which corresponded in all essential details to rickets as that disease manifests itself in the skeleton of the human being. The faulty ration in question, No. 3127, was deficient in phosphorus and fat-soluble A.2 In other respects it was, apparently, satisfactorily constituted. It co...

p ERRY et al. (1957)and Neumann (1960) reported that steers fed an all-concentrate ration developed vitamin A deficiency even though carotene was present in the diet in excess of requirements (N.R.C., 1958). Jordan et al. (1963) found similar results when steers were fed principally on corn silage. Steers fed a "high" nitrate silage were depleted of their liver vitamin A reserves more rapidly t...

Man-hour ration is an important work in process planning, it influences on the production cost and production plan. According to the practical requirements of rotary bearing manufacturing enterprise, a function framework of man-hour ration management system is proposed in the paper. Some key techniques are discussed, involving UML modeling, man-hour calculation method based on the general proce...

the effect of temperature on the main feeding parameters of mnemiopsis leidyi from the southern caspian sea was studied in 2002. the clearance rates and daily rations were estimated from laboratory experiments in a wide range of temperatures from 12 to 27 ?c for m. leidyi of 12?17 mm in length. clearance rate values changed from 52.5 to 107.3 ml ind-1 h-1. the coefficient q10 in temperature 12 ...

The influence of nutrition during the last trimester of pregnancy and the early postpartum period on postpartum LH secretion was evaluated in two-year-old Hereford and Simmental heifers maintained on a high or low plane of nutrition (experiment 1) or in Hereford heifers fed a high or low energy (150% vs 100% NRC) ration (experiment 2). Amount of LH released with 10 mg estradiol benzoate (IM) at...

Analyses of rats diurnal/nocturnal feeding behaviour were made according to the caloric density of the lipid ration. Adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were simultaneously offered three pure macronutrient diet rations: protein, carbohydrate, and lipid. The last was either kept isocaloric to protein and carbohydrate rations or was hypercaloric. Measurements of the food intake were recorded at 12-h i...
